A patient, formally daring work — the cinematography lingers on empty rooms longer than most audiences will tolerate, but those who stay are rewarded with the most haunting final act of the year.
Subversive hero or vile predator? Don Juan has appeared throughout history in many guises. Macha Makeïeff highlights the psychological and societal aspects of the character: desire, domination, and human darkness, which she contrasts with liberating and destructive laughter.

I walked in expecting another genre exercise and walked out feeling like I'd been eavesdropping on a confession. The lead performance is genuinely singular — a career-defining turn.

A few too many scenes feel borrowed from a better film, but the soundtrack and the production design carry the rest. Solid recommendation for fans of slow-burn European thrillers.
